NetJets are slow in getting in contact; -my experience is that they phone if they want you to come for an interview. They will send you a ticket to go to Flight Safety at Paris , Le Bourget, - (NetJets are owned by the same company that owns Flight Safety). The interview lasts the whole day with a psychometric test, technical questionaire, interview in front of a panel of three NetJets staff, (2 pilots & a representitive from Personnel) & finally a sim ride on a Citation. The whole show is well run & seems almost too good to be true, (so it would be nice to get some feedback from someone who is actually working for the company). They are very cagy about pay & you will have to push them to give you a straight answer; -to get an accurate picture you will need to give them a detailed rundown of your hours as pay is caculated pro-rata to *factored hours; -*1 hour of C152 is worth ,let's say, .2 of an hour wheras 1 hour on Falcon 2000 is calculated as 1 whole hour. The sim ride is normally just a SID, a transition & a STAR with an engine failure, but watch out because the citation is rigged to behave as though it has it's engines under the wings(?). You will get a response after two or three weeks, maybe longer; -if you are successful offering you a position, if you are lucky, on a specific fleet. Don't be surprised if ,when you were going for a Captains job, that they propose you a copilots salary; -that is what you will get until you are through your line training & given a command. Netjets are looking for a lot of pilots rifgt now, in fact their requirements have nearly doubled in the last week to approximately 100 pilots. They have had so much demand on the Falcon 2000 that they have had to bring an 2000 airframe over from the USA & have bought the 900's while waiting for the 2000's on order to be delivered.

That remark about the "co-pilots" salary is not true. There are a lot people hired to be a captain and getting a probationary captains salary, which is slightly lower than a captains salary but much better than a copilots salary.
Netjets is not "fuzzy" about the salary, but they need a detailed breakdown of your hours to give you a quote (PIC, jet-time, multi etc.).
When you pass the selectionprocess, you'll get a job-offer including the salary they offer you. It's then up to you if you accept it or not.

I've been flying for NetJets since 94. first the Citation s-2, then Citation Ultra, then Hawker One Thou. now Falcon Two Thou. I'll tell you what you want to know about NetJets US, if you'll tell me stuff about NetJets Europe and NetJets Middle East.

I worked in a banana republic, so I know what that's like. Netjets does not come even close to that.....
The good thing about their way of paying salary, is that you get paid for your experience, not just by seniority or the type you fly. In this way they can attract high timers. Because the pay per fleet is the same, you don't get the usual fights to get to the bigger aircraft etc.

To be more precise about the difference in pay for Probationary Captains: -I was offered a Captains salary equivelent to £32.5K with a probationary salary of £18. Now that is not what I call "close"; whether you call it a Copilots' or a Probationary Captains' salary is immaterial, those are the facts. Now, have things changed recently?

NAS in Jeddah has a couple of Gulfstreams IV's I think, two Hawker 800XP's and the first Falcon 2000 is just doing it's proving flights and is down Bangkok way, dunno what they're proving down there, but it's only just recently arrived. It's been a slow start and the head fred M Al Zeer has a debatable rep, rest of the flight crew seem pretty OK. Business seems a bit slow and not too many shares sold. Couple of the G V's that were slated to come over haven't shown up yet, but it is early days yet.
